josies29 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Good morning, I wondered if any of you paid your SENCo an allowance and if so how much? This is something I would like to do for mine however I am not sure on a figure? Thanks Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseketeer Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Our senco has a 50p and hour increment for the role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSFRebecca Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Ours is paid at an enhanced rate for her release time when she is carrying out her SENCo role - it's the same rate as our room leaders (about 75p an hour more than the standard rate) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseketeer Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 That's interesting Rebecca what do you class as carrying out the role ? Ours is every hour at work and I complete forms such as additional funding and ECHPs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours is every hour at work and I complete forms such as additional funding and ECHPs. When she is doing over and above her usual work in her group - e.g completing paperwork, attending meetings, working 1;1, delivering training to other staff. I would expect all the staff in the group to know particular programmes for children and particular strategies - but I wouldn't expect all of them to write those strategies (if you see what I mean) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LKeyteach Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I pay an annual amount think it's £700. Plus for extra paperwork like discretionary funding or request for ehcp I will pay extra time. I think this is a bit over top in terms of what I can afford but I wanted to keep the lady doing the role because she is so good at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Our SENCO is the deputy and it is part of the role so she doesn't get a separate increment. She gets paid for any additional hours worked and attending training outside her normal working hours but that is the same as all staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperrabbit Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 No extra payment for Senco at my last setting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) I gave my SENCO an incremental rise of 30p an hour ( I think it was). It doesn't sound much, but it was more an acknowledgement of the appreciation for the extra burden she had relieved me of! Mostly, there wasn't much for her to do, and when there was, we did it together. Edited December 31, 2016 by Cait 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paintboxsutton Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Our staff get a termly payment of £40 for any additional roles they take on such as senco, enco, H&S etc including keyworking its not a lot but it was an acknowledgement of the extra work they undertake. They get the payment for each role they undertake so some get multiple payments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
